Boulder-based fine cannabis extract producer Green Dot Labs today announced a new product collaboration with electronic jam pioneers The Disco Biscuits. The On 42 Limited Release highlights an exclusive full spectrum extract blend from Green Dot Labs’ coveted Black Label line that will debut in advance of The Disco Biscuits’ Denver performances at the Ogden Theatre on May 23 and 24 and at the Red Rocks Amphitheatre on May 25.
The On 42 Limited Release features a proprietary blend of two whole plant, fresh-frozen extracts sourced from whole plants grown at Green Dot Labs’ state-of-the-art facility using careful cultivation methods and f frozen at harvest to preserve peak terpene and cannabinoid content. The resulting live resin is presented in two formats. The convenient, low-profile .5mL Live Resin Cartridge is the perfect companion to The Disco Biscuits’ masterful, improvisational live performances and is sold with a custom-branded, variable-temperature Green Dot Labs battery. For fans listening (or streaming) at home, the dabbable 1 gram jar of Live Badder offers an exceptionally rich and round flavor to complement the musical journey. Both products retail for $50-$60 (varies by retailer) and are presented in special edition packaging with a brilliant design that reflects the electric, mind-expanding experience of their improvisational live performances.
Founder Dave Malone and The Disco Biscuits sampled a wide range of extracts from Green Dot Labs’ Black Label garden in search of the perfect strains for their collaboration. After deciding to create a product reflecting two wildly different but equally beloved terpene profiles, lemon and gas, the group taste-tested many selections from the company’s extensive genetic library. Ultimately, they selected Sour Best Lemons (SBSE x Lemon Tree/NL) and Dubble OG (Legend OG x Sour Dubble) for the combination’s distinctive, intense pine, gas, and lemon terpene profile and decided to name their new blend for the classic Disco Biscuits’ live jam “42.”
The On 42 Limited Release will be sold through retail partners across Colorado’s Front Range, including Kind Love, A Cut Above, and select LivWell locations in Denver. Fans who purchase an On 42 product from these retailers will have the chance to enter a special “Miracle Ticket” giveaway. Prizes include backstage access tickets The Disco Biscuits’ Red Rocks show on May 25. One Grand Prize winner will receive a pair of tickets to all three of the band’s Denver shows, a tour of Red Rocks with a band member, and more.
Green Dot Labs and The Disco Biscuits will donate a portion of proceeds from every purchase to the Cannabis Voter Project, an initiative from the voter engagement organization HeadCount.org that aims to educate voters on cannabis policy. Disco Biscuits bassist Marc Brownstein is HeadCount’s co-founder and co-chair and the band has been a mainstay on the organization’s roster since its founding.
Green Dot Labs founder Dave Malone said, “I’ve been to more than 50 Disco Biscuits shows in Colorado since 2006, and I’m always blown away by their ability to interact creatively, abandoning the rules of live performance to jam together and go wherever the music takes them. Partnering with The Disco Biscuits to create On 42 is a dream come true. It speaks to the sacred elements of creativity, open-mindedness, and exploration taken from mind-bending life experiences that inspire our work at Green Dot Labs. We are excited to share this collaboration and thank The Disco Biscuits for trusting us with their first branded cannabis extract.”
Disco Biscuits bassist Marc Brownstein added, “We spent years looking for the right partnership in the cannabis space, but little did we know it was sitting right in front of us the whole time. Dave Malone, known as one of the best growers and processors in the whole country, was right there making jokes on my Facebook feed the whole time. When I finally figured out we had the best talent in the world right in our scene, we knew that we had the perfect partnership. They are big fans of the Biscuits and we are huge fans of Green Dot Labs.”

About The Disco Biscuits
The Disco Biscuits are an entirely different band today than they were when they first broke out of Philadelphia in the mid-90s. That’s not to say that they’ve abandoned their foundation, switched gears or set sail for distant shores. The Disco Biscuits are still very much pioneers of “trance-fusion,” bridging the gap between electronic music and jambands. They still remain rock pioneers whose soul belongs as much to marathon dance parties as it does to live improvisational journeys. They still employ emerging technologies to help them create music that is 100 percent human although, perhaps, not entirely of this earth.
